Revelation 12
1 A great sign was seen in heaven: a woman clothed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and on her head a crown of twelve stars.
Yon gwo sign te vin parèt nan syèl la: yon fanm abiye avèk solèy la, ak lalin nan anba pye li, e sou tèt li, yon kouwòn douz etwal.
2 She was with child. She cried out in pain, labouring to give birth.
Li te gwo ansent e te kriye fò ak tranche ak doulè pou l akouche.
3 Another sign was seen in heaven. Behold, a great red dragon, having seven heads and ten horns, and on his heads seven crowns.
Answit, yon lòt sign te parèt nan syèl la. Gade byen, yon gwo dragon wouj avèk sèt tèt ak dis kòn, e sou tèt li yo te gen sèt kouwòn.
4 His tail drew one third of the stars of the sky, and threw them to the earth. The dragon stood before the woman who was about to give birth, so that when she gave birth he might devour her child.
Konsa, ke li te baleye nèt yon tyè nan zetwal nan syèl yo e te jete yo sou latè. Dragon an te kanpe devan fanm ki te prèt pou akouche a, pou lè li fè pitit la, li ta kab devore pitit li a.
5 She gave birth to a son, a male child, who is to rule all the nations with a rod of iron. Her child was caught up to God and to his throne.
Konsa, li te fè yon fis, yon pitit mal, ki gen pou gouvène tout nasyon yo avèk yon baton fè. Pitit li a te rale monte kote Bondye, e anvè twòn Li an.
6 The woman fled into the wilderness, where she has a place prepared by God, that there they may nourish her one thousand and two hundred and sixty days.
Answit fanm nan te sove ale nan dezè a kote li te gen yon plas prepare pa Bondye, pouke la, li ta kapab nouri pandan mil-de-san-swasann jou.
7 There was war in the sky. Michael and his angels made war on the dragon. The dragon and his angels made war.
Epi te gen lagè nan syèl la. Michel avèk zanj li yo t ap fè lagè avèk dragon an. Dragon an avèk zanj pa li yo t ap fè lagè.
8 They didn’t prevail. No place was found for them any more in heaven.
Men yo pa t reyisi genyen. Konsa, yo pa t jwenn plas ankò nan syèl la.
9 The great dragon was thrown down, the old serpent, he who is called the devil and Satan, the deceiver of the whole world. He was thrown down to the earth, and his angels were thrown down with him.
Gran dragon an te jete anba; sèpan ansyen an ki rele dyab la ak Satan, ki twonpe tout mond lan. Li te jete anba sou latè, e zanj li yo te jete anba avèk li.
10 I heard a loud voice in heaven, saying, “Now the salvation, the power, and the Kingdom of our God, and the authority of his Messiah has come; for the accuser of our brothers has been thrown down, who accuses them before our God day and night.
Answit mwen te tande yon gwo vwa nan syèl la ki t ap di: “Koulye a delivrans lan, pwisans lan, wayòm Bondye nou an, ak otorite Kris Li a te vini an. Paske akizatè a frè nou yo jete anba; Sila ki te konn akize yo devan Bondye nou an lajounen kon lannwit lan.
11 They overcame him because of the Lamb’s blood, and because of the word of their testimony. They didn’t love their life, even to death.
Yo te venk li akoz san Jèn Mouton an e akoz pawòl temwayaj yo. Konsa, yo pa t renmen lavi yo, menm fas a lanmò.
12 Therefore rejoice, heavens, and you who dwell in them. Woe to the earth and to the sea, because the devil has gone down to you, having great wrath, knowing that he has but a short time.”
“Pou rezon sa a, rejwi nou o syèl, ak nou menm ki demere ladann yo. Malè a tè a ak lanmè a paske dyab la gen tan desann sou nou avèk gwo kòlè, akoz li konnen tan li an vrèman kout.”
13 When the dragon saw that he was thrown down to the earth, he persecuted the woman who gave birth to the male child.
Alò, lè dragon an te wè ke li te jete anba sou latè, li te pèsekite fanm ki te bay nesans a pitit mal la.
14 Two wings of the great eagle were given to the woman, that she might fly into the wilderness to her place, so that she might be nourished for a time, times, and half a time, from the face of the serpent.
Men de zèl a gwo èg la te bay a fanm nan pou li ta kapab vole rive nan dezè a nan pwòp plas li, kote li te nouri pandan yon ti tan, tan ak mwatye tan, lib de prezans sèpan an.
15 The serpent spewed water out of his mouth after the woman like a river, that he might cause her to be carried away by the stream.
Konsa, sèpan an te vide yon dlo sòti nan bouch li tankou yon rivyè dèyè fanm nan, pou li ta kapab baleye l avèk lavalas dlo.
16 The earth helped the woman, and the earth opened its mouth and swallowed up the river which the dragon spewed out of his mouth.
Men tè a te ede fanm nan. Tè a te louvri bouch li e te bwè tout larivyè dlo ke dragon an te vide soti nan bouch li a.
17 The dragon grew angry with the woman, and went away to make war with the rest of her offspring, who keep God’s commandments and hold Yeshua’s testimony.
Donk, dragon a te vin anraje avèk fanm nan. Konsa, li te ale pou fè lagè avèk rès pitit li yo ki kenbe kòmandman Bondye yo, e ki kenbe temwayaj a Jésus a.
